Senior Software Engineer

Uber • Sunnyvale, CA • 4h ago

About the role and team

Engineering at Uber means building for real-world impact under real-world constraints. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will architect mission-critical systems that power the foundation of trust across our global marketplace - from ensuring millions of earners are paid accurately and on time to scaling the simulation platforms that drive billions in pricing decisions. You will work on uniquely ambitious projects where performance, reliability, and scale cannot be separated.

The problems here are complex, the systems are massive, and the pace is fast. You'll need to make smart decisions with imperfect information and own your work end-to-end: from the first design doc to debugging production issues when the stakes are highest. We are looking for technical powerhouses who think in systems, stay calm under pressure, and care about building things that actually work. If you're energized by challenge and motivated by real-world impact-this is where you'll grow.

Rate of Pay: $235,500 to $246,000 per year

You will be eligible to participate in Uber's bonus program, and may be offered other @types of comp. You will also be eligible for various benefits. More details can be found at the following link https://www.uber.com/careers/benefits.

Design, develop, and test software applications.

Design, develop, and/or test software applications using company technology stack.

Apply technical knowledge to evaluate complex data, developments, and projects in order to provide recommendations to resolve technical issues.

Support the company's business operations and improve engineering productivity.

Build software components that can be integrated into a fully functional software system.

Solve production issues in product and system reliability.

Work on Presto SQL Plan Optimization to improve the query performance.

Work on Velox Core Runtime Engine to improve the CPU utilization and throughput of the compute Engine.

Work on large scale Compute Engine Control Plan to improve the reliability and optimize of the user workload.

May telecommute.

Basic Qualifications

Employer will accept a Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering (Any), Information Technology, Mathematics, Physics, Applied Analytics, or related field and 3 years of experience in the job offered or in a related occupation.

SQL or MySQL;

Data structures and algorithms development and functionality;

Debugging and monitoring for production services;

Ready to Ride?

This isn't the kind of place where you follow a playbook - it's where you help write one. If you're driven by impact, energized by challenge, and ready to shape how the world moves - we'd love to hear from you.

You may be eligible for bonuses, equity, and other compensation, as well as a range of benefits. Explore our benefits.
